2007-06-08: Chinese Dizi Master
|
|
Carol Worthey and Ray Korns were greatly honored to be invited into the home of Chinese Master of Dizi, Zhang Yicheng, celebrated virtuoso of a wide variety of Chinese flutes and classical woodwind instruments of all types and sizes. Concert Pianist Mary Au escorted us there and had contacted Master Zhang, requesting that he guide Carol with his knowledge of Chinese Classical Orchestras. His music has been recorded in such Hollywood movies and TV Series as "Kung-Fu – The Legend Continues", "Hercules", "Xena" and "The Red Corner", among others. He and his lovely wife, a distinguished pianist and cellist in her own right, praised Carol’s composition in its beginning stages, "Jade Flute in Lo-Yang" for Dizi, Erhu and Pipa with Symphony Orchestra.
Master Zhang generously mentored Carol on many basic principles and characteristics of Chinese music. He delighted us by performing on a dizzying variety of evocative, colorful and rare instruments and we had the pleasure of enjoying special tea while listening to his gorgeous composition "Longing" written for his father to celebrate their reunion after many years absence. Then Mary Au and Ray and Carol feasted on authentic delicacies at the wonderful Chinese restaurant "Ocean Star" in Monterey Park, California.
Above is a photograph of Zhang Yicheng, playing a Dizi (bamboo flute).
